OPENSEA Technology

The Open Software and Equipment Architecture (OPENSEA™)
OPENSEA, our patent-pending operating platform, provides a common architecture in an industry full of single-use solutions. OPENSEA works with any vehicle and any sensor set, and has been integrated into over 500 vehicles, giving stability to even the most disruptive technology. Developed by the offshore-experienced Greensea team, this robust technology was purpose-built to make operations easier and more accurate while minimizing expense and risk. It took us 10 years to build OPENSEA; now, it is the tested, trusted foundation of every system we sell.

How it Works
The OPENSEA library ensures proven performance and functionality by providing native support for thousands of devices. The OPENSEA Suite, a set of applications built on the OPENSEA library, powers capabilities like inertial navigation, device management, vehicle control, and mission management. And it's all anchored by the library's comprehensive health and status management framework.

A Proven Foundation
Greensea developed openSEA to provide a common core architecture for precision vehicle control and navigation. We built openSEA with a couple of basic ideas in mind: 1. Advanced technology requires a proven foundation and 2. Technology going offshore needs to be intuitive and robust. After more than 10 years of developing openSEA, we can now say it: Mission accomplished.

How We Develop
The tools openSEA provides are managed as a single library and are accessed through a powerful Application Programming Interface. Developers can build on the same solid framework as Greensea by including the openSEA library in their applications, or by tapping into the open architecture of the openSEA Suite of applications.

Field-Tested Technology
We've installed hundreds of openSEA-based systems over the last eight years. That means openSEA has been, and is currently, tested again and again in every imaginable condition. Every hour under water strengthens the technology that powers openSEA applications, so what you get is a proven solution for delivering robust and capable navigation, control, and automation software offshore.

Designed to Do Work
openSEA was built by operators, so we know what it takes to get the job done. It tightly combines navigation, control, payload management, mission planning, and diagnostics into a single workspace. It's easy to integrate, easy to use, and easy to troubleshoot. openSEA delivers the best software navigation, control, and automation solution for ROVs and AUVs in the industry, and does so intuitively and simply.
